About: I’ve always had experience with cats and dogs; I specialize in longer walks, which some may constitute as hikes! My dog is a bit too small and old for hikes but I would love to help other dogs get that energy out in a beneficial way. I have experience with senior dogs, and some puppy experience. Pet care fits well into my weekly routine. I am a college student focusing on my education which gives me plenty of flexibility and free time to take care of pets! I can crate dogs if that is a preference although I am very open to just spending time sitting or playing with them as well!
“Justina was GREAT with our dog LC. We hired her for daily walks and she provided great exercise and company for our pup. She sent updates and photos. We will use her again! Thank you Justina!”
“Steph took great care of my two Shibas - meds, walk, water, food, pets. My two dogs aren't the easiest to walk (they aren't great on a leash and one is hesitant around new people). Steph took the time required to treat them as if they were her own. *This was my first time to use Rover. Would definitely recommend Steph!”
“Jennifer is great with Chief! Thank you!!”
About: I have taken animal science classes for past 4 years and previously worked at doggy daycare and boarding facilities. I am also proficient on administering many specialized medications such as insulin and heart meds. I have been taking care of pets since I was 12 years old and have worked with all types of dogs from Chihuahua puppies to senior Great Danes. I am currently working part time, usually from home while going into the office a few days a week. I would be free to visit any pups all throughout the day on most weekdays, usually Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, as well as the weekend. I always ensure that whatever animal I am taking care of is comfortable and feels that they are in a safe environment as well as others around them. Being with people other than their parents can be a stressful situation for some pets and I work to make that encounter as stress free as possible.
“Caroline is super sweet and very attentive with Patches. Always checks in, sends updates and is always available/responsive! Even cleans his wet food dishes after she feeds him, very sweet 😊 Highly recommend ! Thank you Caroline!”
“Colleen has been amazing! We did a meet and greet prior to her dog walking and my pup is really comfortable with her. She is great with animals and really cares about the quality of care, and sends updates on the walks and visits in real time. I recommend her to anyone!!”
About: I've cared for dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior pets needing extra patience and attention. I prioritize safety, comfort, and plenty of playtime, tailoring care to each pet's needs. My goal is happy pets, relaxed owners, and lots of cute photo updates along the way! Pet care is a big part of my weekly routine and something I truly enjoy! I'm available on weekends from Friday afternoon through Sunday evening, as well as weekday evenings after 5 PM. Whether it’s evening walks, weekend drop-ins, or overnight care, I’m happy to be there when your pet needs attention, exercise, or just some extra love. When walking dogs, safety and trust are always my top priorities. I stick to familiar routes (or approved ones from the owner), always use secure leashes/harnesses, and stay alert to surroundings—avoiding high-traffic areas or unfamiliar dogs. I take time to get to know each pup’s personality, pace, and comfort level to make every walk enjoyable and stress-free. Whether it’s a quick potty break or a longer adventure, your dog is in caring, capable hands!
About: I have had dogs and other animals since childhood. I currently have 3 dogs of my own and my neighbors rely on me to care for their two dogs when they are away. I am a teacher with summers off, opening up my schedule completely for dog walking. I am available at all times and look forward to working with you and meeting your animals! I am interested in dog walking. I have a large supply of leashes, poop bags, and water bottles/dishes for mid-walk water breaks. I also have a fenced in backyard if any dogs would like to come over and play with my 3 dogs.
About: Hello! My profile reads Julianna, but I prefer to go by Fern! I recently graduated with a degree in Biology and am passionate about animals. I grew up with pets, from a 10 pound to chihuahua to a 150 pound Anatolian shepherd, and am comfortable with all shapes and sizes of pets. I have a natural affinity for animals, and love spending hours walking, grooming, and playing with them. I have completely open and flexible availability and would love to get to know your furry friends. Having just graduated, I am completely open and have the time for extended play dates with pets, including long walks if you have a high energy animal. I have the free time and energy to devote to pet care as it is my sole focus. I believe that working with cats and dogs requires a mutual understanding and respect. In training my own dogs I do not yell at or punish them for misbehavior, instead establishing positive feedback to encourage good behavior. When walking a dog, I let it take its time and do not tug or rush it along, as a walk is for the dogs enjoyment. I like to build trust with an animal and love giving them all the attention they could ever desire.
About: I have taken care of and raised dogs from puppyhood my whole life. I live at a family house with a full yard a two other dogs that get along well with others. I am well equipped to handle young energetic pups to sleepy senior dogs. I am currently working part time while I go back to school and finish my degree. For these summer months, I have wide availability and can walk or board dogs with any schedule. I live in a family house with a fenced in yard and two well socialized adult dogs. We have done doggy day with friends and family. I understand dogs well and am well prepared to walk the dogs in local dog parks and care for your dog in your home too.
“Carrie is great. We have an energetic puppy and Carrie has not only tried the pup out, but also taught her a few manners! We highly recommend Carrie!”
About: Hello, my name is Seamus and I've just moved into the area to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. I'm currently enrolled in a Veterinary Assistant training program and would love to occupy my time outside of work spending more time with animals! Although I have a shifting schedule, I am an open communicator and am happy to share more details on scheduling. I've held multiple pet care jobs before starting my current Veterinary Assistant program and have always grown up around pets whether it be dogs, cats, lizards or fish. I hope I can meet some of your closest little, or big, friends to give them their needed exercise and outside time they deserve! Please feel free to reach out with any questions - Thanks so much. I currently have a fluctuating schedule, but know my shifts in advance so be sure to check out my calendar! Usually my typical week is two to three 11/12 hour shifts from 7am-6/7pm and then one or two 6 hour study shifts either 8am-2pm or 12pm-6pm. Hopefully after the summer, I will have a more standard schedule as I fit into specific department schedules. I'm happy to work with your household needs as necessary! If there are any specific routes for walks that are better for your dog, please let me know. Happy to work with any guidelines you mention.
About: I've taken care of my family dog, my sister's dogs and friend's dogs for over 15 years. They relied me to walk, feed, play, bathe, take them to vaccination appointments & spa appointments. I also have experience walking large dogs in local animal shelters. I am a mom of a toddler boy and I work from home most days and I am able to take walks every 3-4 hours. I have a big yard for dogs to play and I live in a safe and low traffic community. I have a large living room where the dogs have plenty of space to hang out inside the house.

Shane C.
“Shane is a fantastic dog caretaker - he has been immensely helpful with my partner's dog and my own dog as well. I know he has many years experience caring for dogs and cats. My dog can be fairly reactive to people who come into our home, but Shane demonstrates an intuitive ability to meet her where she's at unflinchingly. She immediately calmed down, which is very unusual for her with most visitors. Shane would make a great dog walker with other dogs, and I imagine other typically-skittish dogs like my own will respond particularly well to his presence!”
